Warm winters
Without the cold, dark winters seen further south, horses don't divert energy into hair and fat reserves. Winter becomes a window to grow — and recovery is much faster.
2,000 acres of undulating country, warm winters, and open paddocks — a landscape built for making racehorses. Boutique foaling, agistment, vet care and yearling preparation, 24/7 on the farm.
Ruby Racing and Breeding is a family-run thoroughbred farm in Geraldton, founded in 2020 by siblings Dan and Jaime O'Bree. The operation sits on Yanget Farm — a 2,000-acre federation property purpose-set up around how horses should be raised, not the other way around.
Our paddocks are large and undulating, our pasture is balanced and natural, our barn is built to a medical standard, and our gates open to a vet partner who is on call year-round. Jaime lives on the farm. The horses are watched 24/7.
We offer a focused set of services — agistment and spelling, mare and foal, foaling, halter breaking and yearling preparation. Limited positions, by design.
Boutique services across the full lifecycle — from the moment a foal hits the ground through to retirement.
2,000 acres of undulating country, warm winters, and large paddocks. Horses spell the way they would in nature — with hills, herd dynamics and clean feed.

Limited yearling preparation positions each year for Magic Millions Perth. The same paddocks that raised our own graduates — now open to a small number of outside prospects.
ExploreWe pride ourselves on our horses being treated as athletes from the day they are born, giving them a head start in their careers on the track.
About 20 km east of central Geraldton — warm winters, strong feed, and a combination of undulating country and firm rocky ground that simply isn't seen elsewhere in WA. The horse precinct is fully separate from the homestead, with a medical-grade barn, foaling boxes, ICU stables and a vet partner on call year-round.
Without the cold, dark winters seen further south, horses don't divert energy into hair and fat reserves. Winter becomes a window to grow — and recovery is much faster.
Undulating paddocks shed water naturally — no stagnant ground, no foot trouble. The walks to feed and water build muscle, blood flow and good honest condition.
Larger paddocks, mixed-age herds, calm older nannies for the youngsters. Horses arrive at sale day relaxed, sound and used to handling — because they've spent their whole lives that way.
We offer 24/7 on-farm care. With a vet on call, we manage most non-surgical conditions in our own ICU and vet facility — colics, lacerations, hourly-check stays. CCTV, specialised boxes, any-time medication, and the flexibility to change setups on farm as a case develops.
Foaling is the highest-risk window of a mare's career, and abnormalities aren't rare — every foaling at Yanget is attended on site by an experienced team, around the clock, with vet backup minutes away.
Founded in 2020 by siblings Dan and Jaime O'Bree. Dan manages the racing and breeding side. Jaime lives on farm and runs the stud and 24/7 horse care alongside an experienced team.
Multiple generations of family before us, all heavily involved in the breeding and racing of thoroughbreds. The same instincts, applied to one farm.
Yanget Farm, Geraldton WA
The setup speaks for itself, but the record is on the graduates page — Bustler (G1 Railway Stakes), Tiger of Malay (now standing at Newgate, leading first-season sire), Earthstorm, Starry Heights (Star Turn × Sentfromthestars), and a continuing run of black-type performers.
The Rommel gelding from our 2023 draft heads to the spelling paddock with two from two and a 7L aggregate winning margin.
2024 graduate Loves Talking became the first of the 2024 crop to gain valuable black type with a strong third in the Gimcrack.
On 20–21 February, Ruby Racing offered 14 lots at the Perth Magic Millions Sale, grossing $501,000.
